Lentil and Red Veggie Purée

Assorted jars of lentil and vegetable purée with colorful spoons for baby feeding.

 I figured it was time to make Harry Lentil and Red Veggie Puree and see if he liked it. And I am pleased to say, despite the snotty nose and feral cold he is suffering at the moment, he ate it all. He even made Mmmm noises, and got upset when I stopped feeding to take the photo. It seems this carnivore is full of surprises…

…or he just can’t taste it properly.
